Talking It's Alive!!!

Due in no small part to the help I've recieved here, I got my '50 F-3 fired up and driving (and stopping too) for the first time this weekend. It's not pretty, and it looks and sounds like the deathmobile when it's coming at you, but it went down to the gas station and back on Saturday. What a hoot! Thanks all again for all the help

2bocat,

WOW!! That is fantastic news!!! I can remember when I got my 49 fired off and drove it around (back then it had the original 6cyl with a hacked up dual exhasut system)

Congrats!!!
Bobby
